A special sideshow torture exhibit has the power, according to showman Dr. Diablo, to warn people of evil in their futures. As skeptical customers are shown the greed and violence they're hiding, one of them snaps and kills Diablo. When they run off, we see the murder to be staged as part of the show. One of the customers has hung around to see this, and wants to make a deal with Diablo, aka the Devil. (official distributor synopsis)

The individual stories are simply weak and the slightly bizarre framework doesn't hold together very well. The ending then seems quite ordinary and I didn't really get any good feelings from it. It's nice to see familiar faces of horror legends, or other actors who have also appeared in horror, but here it wasn't enough to truly entertain me and take away something more than just the feeling that I simply saw it.
